There we go. And Nicole’s still out of it.

On a side note a little advertising: I am offering art commissions over the summer, so if there’s something you’d like to see me draw or you’re looking for an artist for something, you’re very welcome to contact me at my email, [email protected]

About Opal I guess it’s just a design choice. I always thought taurs with upper bodies bigger than what would fit on the neck of a regular four legged animal looked seriously unbalanced. Also, her lower body is covered in pretty heavy fur, whereas her upper body isn’t.

Pff, dead angels? I only have estimates, but let’s see.
The mission started out with Duncan’s platoon of 50 and Opal’s slightly understaffed one of about 45 + About maybe 15 cherubim + Some healers I won’t count because none of them have died. Before the start of the story a bunch of angels had already been taken out of Opal’s platoon since they were dead or injured, leaving around 30-35 soldiers. We’ve seen that at least 15 of Opal’s soldiers were killed or severely wounded while they made their way through the forest. Oh yeah and Matthew, that’s 16. So here at the end Opal’s left with 14-19 soldiers. And Duncan, I don’t know, probably around 40. They weren’t ambushed on several occasions and they’re better swordsmen, so I doubt they’d have lost more than 10.
Let’s see, that’s 36-41 out of 95 wounded, and out of them maybe half are dead.

I think that she knows it’s not Balz fault but she’s still feeling the need to blame someone for this fiasco and he presented himself as a likely, “coldhearted”, target. And she knows she’s being unfair, though she still needs to do this in order to process this horrible outcome.
